IMPROVED HEALTH & FITNESS BAKING | ATHLETES, #FITFAM, NUTRITION

Great bodies are made in the kitchen, not the gym.
As any health-conscious individual knows, diet and nutrition are the cornerstone of any health and fitness related practice. The inventor of the Bakesplit would religiously meal prep to save time and stay healthy, but found that there was room for improvement.

As the meal prepping community knows, consuming food that was cooked in a large batch can get exhausting on the second or third day of consumption. Dieting requires discipline- but that doesn’t mean that it needs to suck.

By having a baking sheet divider, meal preppers would be able to bake multiple flavors of chicken breast on the same sheet- Leading to an improved meal prepping experience, and reducing urges for snacking and indulgent food.

Outside of simply baking protein varieties, the Bakesplit could also be used to bake a filling, healthy meal consisting of baked chicken breasts and sweet potato while prevent fluids from spilling over into each baking sheet. Here are some great meal combinations that take your health practice to the next level:

Chicken and beets (400F for 32 minutes)

Salmon and broccoli (400F for 15-25 minutes)

Pork tenderloin and zucchini (400F for 15-20 minutes)

Shrimp and asparagus (400F for 15-20 minutes)

As far as nutrition is concerned, the USDA recommends moderately active people under 50 consume 2.5 to 3 cups of vegetables per day.

Per a study from the Center For Disease Control, roughly 8.9% of people in the United States are meeting their recommended vegetable intake. Be honest with yourself, where is your vegetable consumption?
